A dungeon of dreaming books [49x72] (Patreon)

Inspired by Walter Moer's novel "The City of Dreaming Books" we are going into an underground dungeon in which books have a life of their own.

Centuries of underground hoarding and hiding of books, a gigantic cave system has developed into which only the bravest of all adventurers and book hunters dare. With this map you should be given the opportunity to discover a small part of the catacombs and to experience an adventure of books

Monsters and dangers lurking here:

Living Books: Some claim to have seen books devour smaller mammals like rats. What no one can claim, since no one survived, is that they form swarms and devour their victims in a matter of seconds. Some are even supposed to fly!

Trap Books: Anyone who opens them will either be killed by fine mechanics, powerful curses or nasty contact poisons.

Legendary Books: While not all of these are inherently dangerous, the possessor will be quickly hunted down by the greedy scoundrels of the catacombs if it is known they have found such a book.

The monsters of the catacombs: From giant bookworms, disgusting blind giant spiders, the enemy bookhunters, to the legendary deadly Booklings.

Although he can actually be found in the book swamp, even the legendary book dragon could get found here. Its scales are made of books, and both its strength and cleverness are legendary.

The Shadow King also lives here. His skin is made of razor-sharp, impenetrable scraps of paper, and its victims often look like they've been caught in a knife-blade tornado.

With this map and inspiration I wish you a lot of fun and I invite you to explore the world of living books! :)
